I currently have a two channel front comprised of a Benchmark USB DAC and Bel Canto Pre. These components feed a pair of active Linkwitz speakers. I recently purchased an Oppo bluray player and a Hidef LEd TV. I would like to simplify my front end and get a processor to replace the Benchmark and Bel Canto. My wish list for the processor is: Quality DAC to replace the Benchmark Solid pre for running two channel. I plan on staying strictly two channel for no HDMI input and output for the Oppo and LED TV USB input for my mac mini but can have SPDIF or Optical
If all you want is a two channel system with USB and several analog ins, you could simply upgrade to the Benchmark HDR which has a solid preamp built in and would cover you for all your inputs, is two channel and you already like the DAC sound.
